I've been trying and looking on the internet for ages now, but where exactly do you place the .xap file? I've read that you should place the file in your content folder, but I have a content folder located in;
TheGame\TheGameContent\
But I also have;
TheGame\TheGame\bin\x86\Debug\Content
Which is it? If I add the .xap file to the latter it recognises it when I refresh the solution explorer, but the former does not.
However, if I add the .xap to the latter it gives an error saying it can't find it when I use the following line of code to access it;
ae = new AudioEngine(#"Content\game_content\audio\xact\Win\xna xact file.xgs");
This line apparently gets the \x86\debug path.
Any advice?
Thanks
Visual Studio, go to the Solution Explorer and right click the Content solution (i.e. "TheGameContent (Content)") or a folder in that section and select Add > Existing Item... and select the .xap file. If it isn't in there, it will copy the file into TheGame/Content, but it will also make it ready to load and work within your project.
Basically it's the same as adding an image file to an XNA project, and it will save you all that trouble you are having.

I tried to submit an Edge extension. It is a simple extension that had three files: the manifest.json, background.js, and an icon.
When I sideload it in Edge, it works. When I tried to publish it, I got an error that says, Files or directories outside directory.
I have looked everywhere for documentation on what the folder directory should look like. Can someone point me to an example directory? Should there be more folders?
The solution was to create a zip file in another way. I found an online site, but if this was something important, I would find another computer.
Anyway, it seems that Big Sur adds something extra that MS doesn't like. Strange Google accepts it.
I am trying to create my own custom components in orbeon.
I have been following the steps from the documentation and it said to unzip the jar file 'orbeon-resources-private' I did that and done what I needed to do inside the folder. I then zip it back up into a jar file and copy back over to orbeon.
When I start orbeon back up all i get is a white screen. I check the console and see I am getting a GET 404 not found. What the hell.
Next I put the original jar back and it worked again. So now I unzipped the jar and just zipped it back up again. (Surely that will work). Nothing, still a white screen.
Why cant I put another jar bar the original to get it working.
(I have tried creating jar from command line, zipping it and changing file extension, just adding .jar to a folder, all dont work.)
Could really use some insight to this...
Thanks
Which documenation page are you referring to?
I don't know why you would want to modify the orbeon-resources-private.jar.
You can put your own components into WEB-INF/resources or you can configure another path as documented in Overriding or adding resources without changing Orbeon Forms.
This application always create a file when you activate a function (lets say, a log file). This file cannot be opened during the running - but I need its content before application closes (another process uses it, so I cant even view it). Is there a way to "hook" it somehow?
Im working with Delphi, but I accept any other solution.
So, summary, I need to know what file application created (it always creates other, but in the same directory) and the content it wrote. Any help appreciated.
I found a workaround:
copy the file, and operate on the cloned one:

I've this little but annoying issue in my project in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. I'm developing a website with .aspx files located in a large folder structure i.e. www.domain.com/group1/type1/somefile.aspx, the root folder contains a "styles" (for css), "images" and "js" (for javascripts) folder. I've read a lot about base tag, absolute and relative path today. Finally I realized "absolute path" is the best choice for me.
The main problem is that when I preview (locally) my site in browser the absolute links for image, css, and js are not working, I'm using src="/js/gl.jquery.js" which I believe is correct and will work online.
The source code of the page for the javascript says http://localhost:61700/js/gl.jquery.js, when I switch to relative path script src="../../../js/gl.jquery.js" and preview the website, it works fine, and the source code for the javascript path says http://localhost:61700/ProjectName/js/gl.jquery.js (Notice Visual Studio added the ProjectName in the path) So I'm taking my guess that when the project goes online (on a main domain) it will work correctly, but right now I need to keep developing locally without this issue. Is there a way to fix this in Visual Web Developer? maybe some tag for the web.config file that I can remove when goes online, or some website property?
I know a quick solution will be develop with the relative path, and modify the code when goes online to absolute path, but I'm looking for some cleaner method, as aditional information I didn't choose base tag because I read cause troubles with anchors links (href=xx.html#question3) and I need to use them at some big files. And avoid the relative path because it's possible that the company ask me to move some files in the future and I don't wanna be updating relative paths.
Thanks a Lot!
Problem solved! This is the solution I found Thanks to ScottGu's Blog.
I quote the main thing:
when opened a web-site and run the project, VWD launch and run the built-in web-server using a virtual app path that equals the project’s root directory name. For example: if you have a project named “Foo”, it will launch and run in the built-in web-server as http://localhost:1234/Foo/Default.aspx.
One downside to this is that it makes it hard to fully qualify things like static CSS and image files within your site (for example: using root qualified paths like /images/myphoto.jpg or /css/mycss.css). Note that you can use the “~” app path trick for dynamic resources – but static resources still end up being a pain (js, css, images files.) (This was my issue)

Here is the main solution:
1) Using the solution explorer within Visual Studio, select the web-site project node, (the one with the World icon)
2) There is a properties named "Virtual path" at the bottom. Change the "virtual path" setting it to / to run as a root web-site.
And that's it, setting up the / I can manage my files easily.
I'm building a Reporting web application right now with MVC3 and I've come up to a couple problems.
My goal is to have it able to generate and view Crystal Reports, SSRS reports, and Excel documents.
Right now I'm working on the Excel segment and I'm running into more trouble than I thought I would. First off, when I link directly to the file, it either opens inside the browser or it downloads it from the server and if the user makes changes it doesn't actually save it to the true file on the server.
I've tried both linking to the file directly using Razor and a ViewModel with the path to the document as well as directing it to an action that returned a File.
I've also tried linking it to a shortcut to the actual file thinking that if I could open the shortcut it would open the file the way I wanted it to and unfortunately it didn't really open at all.
The users already have access to the files on the server through a network drive, so as of right now they can go into the server, open the excel document, edit and save it no problem. I want to duplicate this effect through a link. The program already has a file browser built, so I can browse between the files and make links to the reports.
Thanks in advance!
Since they are apparently on a network drive, you can just link to the files directly, relative to the user?
For example: a link to file://///SERVERNAME/folder/
I tested it between two computers on the network, and that seems to work. However, you still get a popup asking that you want to do with the file, open or save. (both in firefox and IE)
Note: Yes, that many slashes seem necessary, lol
